A key factor in the reluctance of many top stars to go to the Premier League is that there is no winter break, and the further the time goes, the more intense the schedule becomes.

In September, Arsenal had only five games, but in October, Arsenal had played seven.

Seven games a month, one game every four days, it doesn't look like much, but there is a big problem in this is that most of the time the competition venues are home and away.

The schedule is actually quite full, especially after entering the Champions League group stage.

Although the Premier League games are also running around the country, the UK is not big, and many times you can doze off on the bus, but the Champions League is flying everywhere in Europe, taking a plane, or something, it's very troublesome.

On October 27, Arsenal had just killed Stoke City away from home, and Chen Mo didn't even go home that night, so he caught a plane and flew to Istanbul in Turkey.

No way, on October 29, Arsenal will face the opponent in the third round of the Champions League group stage - Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahce is the hegemon of the Turkish Premier League and is nicknamed "Turkey's version of Manchester United".

It's famous, but it's useless.

In the past few years, Arsenal has been doing Manchester United every minute, and it is even easier to do piracy.

However, Arsenal actually played poorly in this game.

Facing the Turkish Super League team, Arsenal did not rely on Piggy's long-range shot from the top of the arc to break the deadlock until the 83rd minute of the second half.

No way, too tired.

After playing in the Premier League on the 27th, he flew to Turkey that night, and only rested for half a day in between, and many players were not in good shape.

Especially Little Pony.

The player with the most pressure on his physical performance this season is Xiao Ma.

After the transfer of Alexander Song, AC Milan poached Flamini again when the summer window closed.

Originally, this was not a big problem, and Arsenal still had Ebou and Diaby, two players who could play in the back, although the strength was not top-notch, but it could also be used when playing a weak team to let the little brother rest.

But alas, bad luck.

In early September, Diaby and Ebu were injured.

Brother Pony is not on the bench now.

There are even times when Wenger asks Chen Mo to play in the back, with Piggy and Ding Ding on top, so that Brother Pony can get some rest.

In fact, this is okay, after all, in the case of De Bruyne, Chen Mo's physical fitness has been well preserved, which can just help Xiao Ma relieve, but after playing Fenerbahce, the 2010 South Africa World Cup qualifiers came.

Qualifiers, that's what it looks like.

Through the qualifiers to compete for the qualification of the World Cup, the top ten matches of the Dragon Kingdom [We Qualify] that year were actually qualifiers.

Argentina is in South America, and the South American Qualifiers are a big round-robin format with a total of eighteen rounds.

To put it simply, it means that ten South American teams, including Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador and Chile, participate, and then each team plays two matches against the other team.

That is, a team has to play eighteen games.

Strictly speaking, the schedule is not very intensive, basically two or three games a month, and there are only games from June to December every year.

But the problem is that it's too far away.

In this kind of national team competition, Chen Mo and they have to fly directly from the UK back to South America.

The difference between the two sides is more than 10,000 kilometers, and they want to cross the Atlantic!

Not counting the plane, not counting the plane's take-off, not counting the landing, just the time the plane is in the air, it takes more than 13 hours!

It's a whole day to fly back and forth.

This is a lot of mental and physical pressure for the players.

On November 1, Arsenal played Aston Villa at home.

won 1-0, but as soon as the game ended, Chen Mo only had time to go home to see the baby, and then flew back to Argentina with Xiao Ma and others on Klee's private plane.

No way, on November 3, Argentina will play in the World Preliminaries, and the opponent is Uruguay.

Very tired, on the plane, Chen Mo and the others didn't even speak, just lay on the sofa and began to sleep.

There is no doubt that in the World Preliminaries, Messi and Aguero will also participate.

However, after getting off the plane to converge, I could clearly feel that the mental state of Chen Mo and his group of people who played in the Premier League was much worse than that of Messi in La Liga, which made Aguero tease Chen Mo like a tired middle-aged man at dinner.

was ridiculed by Aguero in the past, so Chen Mo definitely wanted to get it back, but in Messi's somewhat surprised eyes, Chen Mo at the dinner table just glanced at him casually, and then ignored Aguero.

No way, too tired,

Not only because the Premier League schedule is very dense, but also because the Premier League starts early.

This year's La Liga kicks off on August 31, while the Premier League kicks off in mid-August.

After Messi Aguero played in the Olympics, he went back and had a week off, while Chen Mo and they went back to London to play in the Premier League on the third day after the Olympic final, and then they have been playing until now.

This tiredness is not only physical, but also mental.

The physical and mental exhaustion, which undoubtedly directly affected the game.

Uruguay can be said to be full of talent this year.

Above the strikers are Cavani, Suya, Forlan.

Although the midfield and backfield are not luxurious, players such as Perez, Gargallo, and Godin are also starters of mid-table teams in the five major leagues such as Morocco and Villarreal.

This Uruguayan team is really good, but it is only good.

The team that is not hard enough in the midfield to play Argentina is all pressed.

But in the first half of this game, Argentina was scoreless.

No way, Brother Pony is too tired.

Argentina played 424, the pressure in the midfield was already great, and Brother Xiao Ma still had a lot of fatigue accumulation, and Brother Xiaoma's role became smaller, and the pressure on Chen Mo began to increase.

He's also a human being, and it's impossible to hold up the midfield alone.

Although there is still no problem in all aspects of the organization, it is also exhausting on the organizational and defensive ends, let alone pressing to the front, and there is not even a chance to pass the ball forward.

So, in the second half, Lao Ma replaced Xiao Ma with Cambiaso, and the result

Direct explosion.

In the shocked eyes of the Argentine fans, Argentina was actually kicked in their own half by Uruguay!

Everyone was stunned!

Argentina is suppressed by Uruguay!

But it can't be helped.

Cambiaso is only 28 years old this year, but he suffered a major injury last year, and his athleticism has dropped significantly.

And although Cambiaso is famous, strictly speaking, he can't play as a single midfielder.

Cambiaso, like Little Pony in his early years, also debuted in the front midfield, and then slowly played in the back position.

But the difference between him and Xiao Ma is that after turning to the back waist, Xiao Ma almost gave up all the functions of the front half except for the ball, and the organization did not study, that is, he specialized in defense and ball.

Cambiaso, on the other hand, is more like a hexagon who can't attack or defend, and a big reason why he can play at Inter is that the manager of Inter at the time, Roberto Mancini, made a three-man combination.

Under the three-back system, Cambiaso's small hexagon with strong running ability can indeed play the biggest advantage, because he can help his teammates check and fill in the gaps, and the other two midfielders can help him provide midfield hardness.

To put it simply, it is actually a bit similar to Pirlo's forward and backward positions, both of which are flaws in the players themselves, but the coach uses the right teammates and formations to help him make up for the shortcomings and magnify the advantages.

It's not a bad thing, Ronaldo will be kicked out of when he plays at the back, and Maldini will be gone when he plays forward AC Milan.

Any player has to be in the right position to shine.

It's just that Cambiaso can't adapt to Argentina's 424 system.

Under the 424 system, Chen Mo needs a teammate with strong running ability, strong sweeping and interception ability, and when he Chen Mo attracts a lot of defense, he can kick the ball through the opponent's defense.

Brother Xiao Ma and him Chen Mo are both indispensable two people in Argentina under the 424 system.

424 couldn't be played, and in the end, in the seventieth minute of the second half, Chen Mo shouted that Messi retreated from the front line to kick the front and changed the formation to 433 before regaining the dominance of the midfield.

But after Messi retreated, Argentina's forward line went wrong again.

There is no left winger.

Strictly speaking, Argentina has never had a left winger, and it was a left winger who asked Di Maria to make a cameo, but now that Messi has withdrawn from the front, Di Maria has returned to the right winger position, and the left winger is Aguero in a cameo.

It's not that you can't kick like that.

Argentina under this kind of staffing is actually a bit like Real Madrid during Zidane's period.

At that time, Ronaldo said that he was a left winger, but in fact he was a shadow striker, many times Marcelo was used as a left winger, and Ronaldo was more adducted, between the side and the middle, the space was the largest, and it was also the easiest to get scoring opportunities in the rib area.

Argentina is the same now, the left side is all handed over to others, and Aguero goes to the ribs, but the problem is that Argentine left-back Zanetti's offensive ability is not as strong as Marcelo, and Argentina does not have Kroos, a midfielder who can drag back on the left side and help Marcelo fill the defensive void after the top, and at the same time can also send key balls.

So, the pressure came to Chen Mo again.

Not only did he play as a left midfielder, but he also resisted the duties of a left winger, while Messi also expanded his range of activities beyond the right midfield.

It's okay with this style of play, but the problem is that the physical exertion is too great.

No way, don't just be a left winger and a left midfielder, Cambiaso's single back is also unstable, and Chen Mo has to retreat to a deep position to assist in the defense when the attack and defense are converted.

After the race, Chen Mo ran 15.3 kilometers in this race, and directly drew a super-large L on the heat map.

From the left side of the opponent's penalty area to the left midfielder, and then to the back area, Chen Mo was fully covered, and at the end of this game, under the shocked gaze of fans all over the world, Chen Mo also had a very rare leg cramp.

But even if it ran like this, the final score was only 1-0.

After this game, Wenger directly bombarded the old horse at the press conference, saying that the old horse does not know how to protect the players at all.

There is no doubt that Lao Ma's personality will naturally not make others beep more, and the two directly launched a confrontation on the Internet.

Arsene Wenger said that the old horse did not know how to protect the players, and the old horse said that Wenger did not know what patriotism was.

The two quarreled on the Internet, causing countless fans to eat melons.

However, although there was a lot of noise on the Internet, Lao Ma did not give an inch, but two days later, in the second game against the weak team Venezuela, Lao Ma still let Chen Mo and Xiao Ma sit on the bench.

Obviously, although Lao Ma is unforgiving, he is actually very good to Chen Mo.

It's just that after this game, there was still a heated discussion on the Internet.

The main midfielder who started this match was Veron, who is thirty-four years old this year and is at Estudiantes de La Plata.

Veron's appearance undoubtedly surprised many fans.

And the surprise is that Lao Ma would rather use Veron, who returned to Argentina to play in 05, than Riquelme, who is only 30 years old this year!

But it's just a hot topic.

Those who know a little bit about penalty kicks understand that Chen Mo cannot coexist with Riquelme, unless Chen Mo plays in the back and gives the latter a hand, but this is simply impossible.

Although Chen Mo is relatively kind, it does not mean that he does not have his own arrogance.

If he was a veteran horse in his prime, he might have considered giving some control of the offensive end to the opponent, but Riquelme was not qualified.

There is a lot of buzz on the Internet, but none of these things can affect the national team's game.

Venezuela were not a strong team, and in the end, Argentina won again 1-0 with Aimar's curling shot.

Both wins were a small victory, but after the game all the players and fans were very excited.

It is a person who can see that this is not Argentina's best state, after all, in the two games, the first game was that Xiao Ma only played half of the game, and the second game was simply not played by Chen Mo and Xiao Ma, but even so, it was a two-game victory.

The start was good, Lao Ma was very excited, and he was going to call Chen Mo to eat barbecue with them on the night after the game, but it had been a week since he came out, Chen Mo missed his wife and children a little, and this week, Arsenal also played an FA Cup and an English League Cup, and was about to play the league and the Champions League again.

didn't have much time to stay, so in the end, in the old horse's farewell and Messi's egg-hurting eyes, Chen Mo hugged the two and got on the plane.

Well, Messi's eggs hurt, and the schedule in La Liga is not very dense at this stage, so he was left alone by Lao Ma to eat.

For social fear, eating alone with the leader will most likely not be a happy thing.

But soon, Chen Mo didn't have much to care about Messi, and just after returning to London, he got a good news from Wenger - Arsenal was ready to find Inter to buy back Vieira.

Hearing the news, Chen Mo, who was sitting on the playground stretching his legs, was stunned, and his face quickly showed an excited look!

He has a very good relationship with Vieira, when he first arrived at Arsenal, Vieira took care of him, but later because of the position and salary problems, Vieira left Arsenal, but the two are still in close contact now.

And Wenger wants to buy Vieira at this time, and naturally he is not letting Vieira play the main team.

Vieira is also thirty-three years old this year, and this age is already the end of his career for a tall man like him who is 1.91 meters old and mainly eats by impact, but!

It's perfectly fine to be a substitute!

Vieira, like Thierry, has lost his dominance on the pitch because of his age, but his greater experience has made up for some of his shortcomings, and most importantly, Vieira is similar to Thierry Henry, in fact, he has no pursuit of glory.

Thierry Henry has already achieved team and individual Grand Slams, while Patrick Vieira is unlikely to win the Ballon d'Or as an individual honour.

This kind of veteran just belongs, as long as he doesn't play for too long, he can still play a very good effect, and at the same time, he doesn't fight for the start!

Before Wenger, he actually wanted to keep Vieira Pire, after all, whether it was Vieira Pire or Henry, they were actually cultivated by Wenger, and they are also compatriots.

It's just that Arsenal had no money at that time, couldn't offer big contracts, and players over the age of 30 were signed once a year.

What does it mean to sign a contract a year, that is, if you work here this year, you may be unemployed next year.

So Arsenal at that time really couldn't keep people.

But now it's different!

Arsenal have money!

As long as you can strengthen the strength of the team and strengthen the depth of the team's bench, money is not a thing!
